It's debatable whether it's okay to upload this at all, but to claim that it's under an MIT license when no such license was attached to the original is incredibly shitty of you. If you are going to do this at least remove the license.

Hello liam!

This was a generic README.md template.
I think my intention was to attribute GPL2 LICENSE.

Might not be the very best at all, but at least people need to give him credits.
I'll update this soon

By adding a license you're telling people they're free to use this under the terms of that license. Why put a license on this at all?

What do you suggest, no license?

I've changed the repo with no license with all credits or ownership falling under Xeno

If you're going to upload it at all, yes. That way at the very least you won't have people assuming they're free to use the code and assets here.
